Guest guest Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Lugol's can stain the teeth, others have recommended using a straw to drink whatever they have mixed the Lugol's in to avoid this.

If I take that much lugol's would I have to deal with staining on my teeth? I figure I could just measure out 45 drops (2%) into a medicine cup and see if it's a 1/2 teaspoon, etc. Thanks for your experience! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Does the straw eliminate the staining? I tried using a straw for my liquid iron and the staining was horrible.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Others have stated that it worked. Sorry I can't vouch for it, when I use Lugol's it's been in small amounts or painted on.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi Brite.Trice,I do have 100-125mg of lugol's in 2 cups of water first thing in the morning (I've been drinking that amount of water first thing in the morning for decades). No staining of my teeth at all. Mine is in the whitest scale. Some people add some ACV in their water with the lugol's.From: Linn <mwm1glm@...>To: iodine Sent: Thu, March 3, 2011 2:48:11 PMSubject: Re: Lugol's vs. Iodoral in large doses- teeth staining?

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Thanks, . I think I was remembering (and worrying about) an earlier post about yellow teeth, but when I did a search it seems like her problem may not have been the Lugol's. Glad to know you've been benefiting from the Lugol's for so long! I'm only about 6 months into this journey.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I am taking about 70mg of Lugols (12 drops X 5%) in about 1/2cup of water a day. My teeth actually seem to be whiter?

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I have heard others complain about staining, but it could be that they are using the drops alone.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 I used iodoral for first 3 years thinking my tummy is nauseated easily. But been using the make your own lugol from the ebay seller at higher doses than 50 mg used to do. Tummy not bothered and I don't even mind the taste in water and teeth are whiter I need to get a scale so the dose can be more consistent though...My old scale wasn't effective...Pam.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Lol. I can see what I have said is confusing. I feel like I should be clearer myself here. I have been using the 2 cups of *only water* for decades, so when I started to use Lugols I added it to something I already was using normally. I started Lugols in 2008 but never more than 30mg. I have been using 100-125 since March 2010. The Lugols improved my digestion and never stained my teeth or my family, dogs and goats.Good luck Brite.From: Pamela Valley <2007pams@...>iodine Sent: Sat, March 5, 2011 5:24:17 PMSubject: Re: Re: Lugol's vs. Iodoral in large doses- teeth staining?
